    Q
    Is Suspend SC the best spray for killing roaches outdoors with pets? Also to kill ants indoors and outdoors.
    A

    Suspend SC would be a great choice as an exterior spray for roaches and ants but should not be the sole product for treatment. We recommend mixing an IGR with Suspend SC and also baiting for roaches and ants. Please click the links below for product recommendations.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC kill german roachs on contact or does it take a while to take effect?
    A

    Suspend SC is not a contact kill. It does take some time to effect the german roach. This product should not be the sole treatment for this species of roaches.  Please click on the link below for additional information on treating german roaches.

    Q
    What is the knockdown time for Suspend Sc, on the German Cockroach?
    I've used it at the maximum .06% concentration, 1.5 oz a gallon dilution rate. I'm curios, as to how long it will take to kill the German Roach?
    A
    The kill time for Suspend SC varies depending on the life stage the roach is in.It can take minutes or hours. This is why we also recommend using bait to be carried back like Maxforce FC Magnum.

    Q
    kill anything living in vacant apartment building
    what could i use to kill anything and everything living or nesting in a 30 unit apartment building that is vacant at the moment. and also protect for a long period of time alot of roaches, and flees seen so far but again want to kill everything
    A
    A great product to use for general insect control would be Suspend SC. If you have a lot of fleas, you will also want to look into the products in our Indoor Flea Kit. For fleas, you will need to do a treatment two weeks after your initial treatment. Also, vacuuming frequently will help get rid of a lot of bugs.

    A
    Suspend SC is labeled to kill spiders if applied at 1.5 fluid ounces per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. Treat monthly on the exterior of your home and every three months indoors along the baseboard areas. You can also apply it the cracks and crevices of your garage, around window and doorframes.

    Q
    Is it ok to mix Suspend SC & other sprays with city water? Will the chlorine affect the effectiveness?
    We have a lot of chlorine in our city water and wondering should I buy purified water?
    A
    Most pest control operators use city water to mix their pesticides with and have no problems with decreased effectiveness. Purchasing purified water would not be necessary.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC kill brazilian wandering spider (aka banana spider)
    Found a brazilian wandering spider in some bananas with a nest. We sprayed with Suspend SC all around the house shortly after, will this kill this type of spider? We haven't seen it since. Thanks
    A
    Yes, Suspend SC can kill just about any type of spider, but generally speaking the spiders will take a long time to die.  Treat monthly on the exterior of your home and every three months indoors along the baseboard areas. You can also apply it the cracks and crevices of your garage, around window and doorframes.

    Q
    Pond water as carrier
    Will Suspend SC still be effective if you use a pond or lake as the water source for mixing. Is there usually too much organic material or ph issues that will render solution useless? If okay, approximately how long can you store the mixed solution before it becomes useless?
    A
    Pond water should be absolutely fine for you to use to mix the Suspend SC with when treating around your home and the water ph should not cause any problems. You only want to mix up what you plan to use as anything mixed needs to be used with 24-48 hours after being combined.

    Q
    Will a mixed batch create an odor over time?
    I've been using Suspend SC for about a year. I normally make a gallon at a time and use about 1/2 gallon per treatment. This batch (made a month ago) smelled like rotten eggs. Going forward, I'm going to only make as much as I need, but I'm curious if leaving the mix for a month caused the odor. It's never happened before. Thanks!
    A
    Yes, leaving a mixed batch of Suspend SC may cause the mixed soulution to have a foul odor if left in the sprayer for an extended period of time. You should always mix what you need and perform a triple rinse when you are done.

    Q
    Have carpenter bees using suspend sc only reach with pump sprayer, anything better?
    A
    We are unsure if you are asking about a better pump sprayer for better application and reach with the spray, or if you are asking about a better product for control of carpenter bees. For a sprayer with better reach than a general hand pump sprayer, you could look at using the Chapin Slide Pump Sprayer which will allow a spray reach of at least 30 feet. If you are looking for a product that could be a little better than the Suspend SC you are currently using, they Cyonara 9.7 is a great cost effective option that will hold up to the outdoor elements a little longer and sit on the surface more for better coverage and control. Or you could get our complete Carpenter Bee Kit as well for the best control over the entire population in and on your home.

    Q
    I have a dog that eats bugs. Will Suspend SC be harmful if she eats bugs that have been killed by Suspend SC?
    veterinarian
    A

    If your pet eats insects that were killed by Suspend SC, there is only enough product for it to kill the insect in touches so there is a reduced risk for your pet. They will have to consume quite a few to be affected by the dead pests.

    If you pet does show any signs of illness, we would recommend that you contact a veterinarian.

    Q
    How can we stop Daddy Long Legs insects from coming into our house? 16 so far. We have children & pets
    A

    We would recommend using Cyper WP. This can be sprayed around the baseboards and cracks and crevices indoors. Outdoors, you will spray around the perimeter of your home. You will use two scoops per gallon of water. This is residual product and will work for up to 3 months indoors and 30 days outdoors. It can leave a powdery residue because it is a wettable powder. Once Cyper WP is dry, it is safe for pets and children to come into the rooms that were sprayed.

    If you are wanting something that will dry clear, we would recommend using Suspend SC. You will use this around the cracks and crevices indoors and around the perimeter outdoors. You will use 0.75-1.5 fl. oz. per gallon of water. Once Suspend SC is dry, it is safe for children and pets to return to the area.

    Both of these products will kill and keep killing the spiders.

    Q
    What is the best product to use to get rid of German roaches. I would prefer a spray.
    A
    We really recommend using more than one product to eraciate roaches.  You could our German Roach kit. The German Roach Control Kit is perfect for roach control problems in homes, apartments, and similar small treatment areas. This kit is designed specifically to treat infestations that have been Identified as German Roaches but it will treat other common roaches, as well.

    Q
    Caterpillar infestation on my evergreen and rose bushes
    I have sprayed Sevin concentrate 2 days in a row and my bushes are still filled with them. Help
    A
    Suspend SC is labeled for Caterpillars. Directly spray the plant foliage and nest. The larvae are usually easy to contact if spraying is done in late morning when the larvae congregate on the tent surface to warm in the sun. Mechanical control is also helpful with this pest. The egg masses are easy to spot after the leaves have dropped in the fall. Simply clip off and crush or drop into a bucket of soapy water.

    Fenvastar EcoCap would be a great product to consider. It works just as well as Suspend but can be shipped to CT.
